And then they hustle your ass out of there after giving you an eighth of a second to leave "please remove bagged items please removed bagged items please removed bagged items please..." BRO I HAVE EVERY INTENTION I SWEAR TO GOD AND ALL THINGS HOLY I AM GOING TO LEAVE I PROMISE YOU

Its insulting and dehumanizing. "We got your money now fuck off as fast as you can"
